Strange PHP error!

[Anon]

Started getting this error after my host copied everything over to a new server:

---------------------------------------------Warning: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /home/account/public_html/test2.php on line 77

Warning: Failed opening 'http://domain.com/db/show.php?show=1&type=old' for inclusion (include_path='') in /home/account/public_html/test2.php on line 77

Line 77 in the script is:

---------------------------------------------<?php include("http://domain.com/db/show.php?show=1&type=old"); ?>

Could this be due to a difference in the PHP module on the new machine? This exact setup has worked for 2 months. The error only started immediately after a move to a new machine.

Thanks for the help! 🙂

Try Setting you inclusion like this

include($DOCUMENT_ROOT.'/include/file.php');

it could be the way they set there php.ini

Hope that helps

i have the same problem.
on my local mashine it works fine, but on my host i get the error.

but it works, if you use a relative path for the include.

but then you would have to set the variables before you call the script , so your script would be like this:

<?php
$show=1;
$type="old";
include("db/show.php");

?>

it seems that my provider doesent allow to include scripts that are not im my directory, because i get the same error if i try to load the script wit fopen:

if ($fd = fopen ("http://www.php.net", "r")){
while (!feof ($fd)) {
$buffer = fgets($fd, 4096);
echo $buffer;
}
fclose ($fd);

}

this script also works on my linux server at home
